Welcome

Our Keswick store brings a unique blend of functional and stylish outdoor gear to the area - and it's aimed at everyone who enjoys the outdoors.

Local knowledge

Because most of our staff live locally we are usually able to provide the best advice available on local outdoor activities. We know the routes, the trails, the walks, the campsites, the people, the car parks, the peaks, the distances, and the times.

Need to know what to take where?

All our staff are outdoor nuts of one sort or another. They have travelled all over the world from Everest to New Zealand and from Yosemite to Kilimanjaro. They have bummed lifts across Europe, jumped off bridges, and climbed peaks all over the world. Our expertise covers just about everything from rock climbing to world travel, mountain biking to mountain leadership.

Why not send us a postcard - we'd love to hear about the places you like to visit, whether it's Scarborough beach with your trousers rolled up building up the courage to go for a paddle or standing in the sunshine at the top of Lake Louise admiring the blanket of cloud sitting in the valley - we would love to hear all about it and we'll even add you to our world map in store...it's quite impressive!

Location and parking

Our store is easy to find, being right in the centre of the town square, opposite the tourist information centre. It backs onto the first large car park as you come into Keswick from the East.

Boot fitting department

We pride ourselves on being able to fit boots to just about anyone, using a wide range of techniques to help ensure a good fit. We are a supplier of Superfeet custom insoles and have five members of staff who are trained to fit them, one of whom will always be in the store.

Supporting local groups

We are proud of our links with local groups and organisations, and do whatever we can to support them.

One group we currently support is Keswick Adventure Centre, they provide outdoor activities including Via Ferrata, Climbing and Ghyll Scrambling in and around Keswick. If you want to have a good time while you are in the Lakes, definitely consider taking part in an activity with them. You won't regret it - trust us, we have the photos to prove it!

To find out more on how we can benefit your group, please contact the Store Manager, David Kearns on 017687 8103.
